Louis Porter Jr. Design, has released Lost Races: Elves for The Pathfinder Roleplaying Game at RPGNow.com and DriveThruRPG.com. Here is information on this product:

In forgotten ages, a great race of elves ruled Exodus: a tall,proud folk, unmatched in martial prowess and gifted with magical might. They were beautiful and terrible like the sun, possessed of powers beyond those of the other infant races of the world. They ruled a vast, wild region, dwelling in subterranean fortresses. Magic was in their blood. It was said they could step through a doorway and end up halfway across the world, and could enter the dreams of sleepers on a whim. They forged fantastic weapons, crafted cunning tools, and created magnificent works of art. Their rule lasted for untold millennia. Then came the First Ones.

The interlopers launched a swift and furious offensive upon the elves, intending to conquer and subjugate them before taking the rest of the world for their own. The elves’ counterattacks brought the First Ones’ campaign to a standstill. Both forces were equal in magical power, but the elves were superior on the battlefield, their united front more than a match for the First Ones’ loose collective. However, the slave races used by the First Ones’ provided them with the sheer numbers necessary to keep fighting. The stalemate continued for centuries. Then the Khaynites—greatest of the First Ones and children of the bloody god, Khayne—invented a new weapon that tipped the scales and brought an end to elven rule of Exodus.
Inside this sourcebook you will find you’ll need to enhance on adventures when using the Lost Races: Elves:

History of the Lost Races: Elves
- Six unique elven races including Deep Elves, Dark Elves and Planewracked Elves
- New Racial Rules and Racial Archetypes including Charoteer (Cavalier), Desert Viper (Slayer), ), Dream Eater (Witch) and more
- New Equipment including Desert Glass and Elven Bronze
- New Feats including Communal Summoning, Liminal Magic Adept and more
- New Magic Items including Elixir of Stolen Dreams, Sicking Elfshot and more

Since we know the Machinesmith is one of the favorite artificer / crafter classes for Pathfinder, we decided to take it one step further and create a Mythic Path for the class.

And with that we have the Futurist.

This is the first rough draft version of the class that we are releasing so you Pathfinder fans can go over it, kick the tires on it and just see what we did right and wrong. So this class will be available for a limited time and writer, Jonathan Palmer, will be following this thread, commenting and explaining issues that need to be fixed.

Who would like to see Sean K Reynolds​ and myself doing a LIVE Transparency Agenda episode talking about Pathfinder Roleplaying Game​, game design and other cool stuff like that February 16th on GoogleHangout on Air?

For the NeoExodus: A House Divided and Pathfinder Roleplaying Game fans who think there were no "standard fantasy races" in NeoExodus, this might be the best quote of the day:

The elves were the first major resistance the First Ones faced. They're a match for them until the Khaynites produced the virus called elfbane. The plague that decimates the population, causing the elves to use the Nexus gateways to flee Exodus, and allowing the First Ones to lock the gates behind them, allowing them to conquer.

The next question many of you are asking is what happened to the Dwarves? Lost Races of NeoExodus: Elves coming soon to DriveThruRPG.com and Paizo.

OK Pathfinder RPG by Paizo, Pathfinder and Paizo fans, if you have been wondering about our project, Pirates of the Bronze Sky, wonder no further. This video tells you of our plans and better still, where you can get the Pirates of the Bronze Sky Playtest PDF. Enjoy!

Louis Porter Jr. Design, has released Obsidian Apocalypse: Players Guide at Paizo.com. Here is information on this product:

A dark star fell from the sky bringing with it the end of all things! The sanctity of the world known as Abaddon was shattered when a global apocalyptic event of a meteor impacting the planet causing a destructive ecological and eldritch change. Now there is no day or night, just never ending Apocalypse. An undead world ruled by fear and horror. Inevitably, in campaigns set in Abaddon, player characters will die. No matter which campaign model you use, it will overflow with mind-shattering horrors and lethal threats. Expand the already interesting and unusual races of the world of Abaddon.

Inside this sourcebook you will find you’ll need to embark on adventures in the exciting setting of Obsidian Apocalypse:

One of the more interesting things I discovered while working on Obsidian Apocalypse, is that when you build a campaign work, you never really know how people are going to use it to play their game. When we built Obsidian Twilight (the predecessor to Obsidian Apocalypse), I thought of it as a zombie apocalypse setting but others thought it was a post apocalypse good versus evil setting. While even more thought that it would be more gothic / classic horror.

The reason is that people have their own interpretation of the word “horror”. So that is why we have a “generic” setting for Obsidian Apocalypse plus four custom toolkits that you can make your own custom setting and people have really responded to it. So I am wondering, is this something people would like to see campaign setting do in the future: One main “generic” concept of the setting a several toolkits to customize it any way that you might like to? Please let me know what you think. Thanks!

I just wanted to send out a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone out there. Enjoy the day with your family, friends and loved ones. We at LPJ Design are very thankful for your support and patronage and hope you get everything you want this Christmas season.

Something I am working on for NeoExodus: A House Divided Campaign setting. We are adding Androids (which we call Kagans) to the setting but we are changing the racial abilities of the race. Simply put, is this race overpowered now?:

Ability Score Racial Traits: Kagan have swift reflexes and are very intelligent, but have difficulty relating to others. As a result, Kagan gain a +2 bonus to Dexterity and Intelligence, but suffer a –2 penalty to Charisma.

Size: Kagan are Medium creatures, and they have no bonuses or penalties due to their size.

Base Speed: Kagan have a base speed of 30 feet.

Languages: Kagan begin play speaking Common. Kagan with high Intelligence can choose any languages they want (except secret languages, such as Druidic).

Exceptional Senses: Kagan have darkvision and so can see perfectly in the dark to a range of 60 feet and in addition, they possess low-light vision.

Constructed: For the purposes of effects targeting creatures by type (such as a ranger’s favored enemy and bane weapons), Kagan count as both humanoids and constructs. Kagan gain a +4 racial bonus on all saving throws against mind-affecting effects, paralysis, poison, and stun effects, are not subject to fatigue or exhaustion, and are immune to disease and sleep effects. Kagan can never gain morale bonuses, and are immune to fear effects and all emotion-based effects.

Arcane Essence (Ex): Once per day as a full-round action, Kagan imbue a single small (or smaller) inanimate object with the Kagan’s arcane essence with mobility and a semblance of life. The animated object then immediately attacks whomever or whatever you initially designate. An animated object can be of any nonmagical material. This spell cannot affect objects carried or worn by a creature. This effect last 1 round per level. Objects that are imbued disintegrate in to dust and the end of the time effect of this ability.

Louis Porter Jr. Design, has released Ultimate NeoExodus Chronicles: Weapons of Machinesmith Destruction for The Pathfinder Roleplaying Game at RPGNow.com and DriveThruRPG.com. Here is information on this product:

As nations roar into full-blown warfare and soldiers begin the march to battle, the machinesmiths answer the call to arms. They bring forth newfound terror to the battlefield—fantastic weaponry and new experiments in mass destruction: portable cannons, armor giving a man the strength of a bull, and constructs that can both kill and cook. Twisting old techniques into newfound uses, the machinesmith constantly innovates in an arms race that can mean life or death for her and her nation.

• Nomad Of The Void - Slipping easily from the bonds of worlds, it glides into the silvery void, making for whatever destination its pilot wills.

• Sir Cullen’s Intelligent Terrestrial Transport – One of his greatest assets is his longtime companion, a gift from an old wizard friend many years dead: an intelligent item capable of self-propulsion as well as speech, which coaches Sir Cullen in all things social.
• Stygian Warwagon - Crafted by the daemons of Abaddon, this vehicle serves only one purpose: the delivery of pain.

Louis Porter Jr. Design, has released Treasure of NeoExodus: Gentle Hand of Law for The Pathfinder Roleplaying Game at RPGNow.com and DriveThruRPG.com. Here is information on this product:

During the reign of the Mad Emperor, civil upheavals were commonplace in the Caneus Empire. The final line of defense for the Emperor is the High Guard, charged with safeguarding their liege against all threats, foreign or domestic. The Lady-Commander of the High Guard, torn between duty to her monarch and empathy for her persecuted fellow citizens, prayed to the Sanguine Lord and all his Venerates for grace. Her prayers were granted in the form of a weapon, one with which she could continue her duties without shedding the blood of her compatriots.

The Treasure of NeoExodus: Gentle Hand of Law is created for use with your NeoExodus: A House Divided campaign setting home gaming for the Pathfinder RPG. The Treasures of NeoExodus series focus on creating unique and interesting magical and mundane items that you can use in your NeoExodus home games that give you more a personal connection to the item. This PDF comes with a background and history of the Gentle Hand of Law, its special mundane and/or magical qualities plus magic item containing detailed information and blank versions of the cards. Everything you need to incorporate Gentle Hand of Law into your character’s background and your gaming sessions is here making them even more appealing, special and personal.

By now, I am sure many of you are familiar with the updates that I am making to the NeoExodus: A House Divided Campaign Setting. With that, I am sure many of you who have bought the campaign book were happy to hear that we are doing an update. But at the same time, I am sure many of you didn’t want to have to buy a whole new book from something you just bought and I understand and feel for you. And with that I have come up with this plan.

First, this new update (which I keep calling the Ultimate Edition) all people who purchased the PDF version from DriveThruRPG, RPGNow, Paizo or D20 PFSRD as a PDF, we will be updating your original PDF version with the new Ultimate Edition FOR FREE. As long as you have OR do purchase the NeoExodus: A House Divided Campaign Setting, by the time we release the Ultimate Edition, you will get the update for free. The NeoExodus: A House Divided Campaign Setting PDF book will be updated with the Ultimate Edition PDF online so all you will have to do is download the new version.

Second, the Print-On-Demand versions will be updated with new Ultimate Edition Print-On-Demand version in both black and white AND full color. What the price of this books will be is currently not known but we hope to keep the price as low as possible and reasonable for you the consumer.

Third, we are adding more additional content and artwork to this new Ultimate Edition. I am “guesstimating” that we will be adding between 15 to 30% additional content compared to the original version. Anything we are adding are not about “destroying” work we have we already done. For example, we are adding alternative racial traits for all of the races. We are not changing their stated standard racial traits so those who have PCs made that don’t really miss out on anything but now they have more options for the future.

Louis Porter Jr. Design, has released Treasure of NeoExodus: Dancing Dragons for The Pathfinder Roleplaying Game at RPGNow.com, DriveThruRPG.com and Paizo. Here is information on this product:

Scattered across the face of Exodus are the Nexus Gateways, ancient magical portals that connect with each other as well as other worlds and dimensions. They cannot be controlled completely, though—on occasion they open without warning, sometimes bringing terrifying things from across the planes. One such occasion brought the wandering hero known as the Monkey Prince, who left behind tales of his madcap adventures and a powerful weapon known as the Dancing Dragons.

The Treasure of NeoExodus: Dancing Dragons is created for use with your NeoExodus: A House Divided campaign setting home gaming for the Pathfinder RPG. The Treasures of NeoExodus series focus on creating unique and interesting magical and mundane items that you can use in your NeoExodus home games that give you more a personal connection to the item.

Everything you need to incorporate Dancing Dragons into your character’s background and your gaming sessions is here making them even more appealing, special and personal.

With a title like that Pathfinder Roleplaying Game fans, you have to check this video out. Plus I mention Owen Stephens, Jason Eric Nelson, Steve Russell and Creighton Broadhurst by name in this video. Watch it now!

Louis Porter Jr. Design, has released Treasure of NeoExodus: Twin Furies for The Pathfinder Roleplaying Game at RPGNow.com and DriveThruRPG.com. Here is information on this product:

The religion of the dark god Khayne is divided and scattered, with each small cult worshiping their bloody lord after their own malicious fashion. One of the largest cults in the Brotherhood of Khayne—as well as the most ruthless and organized—is the Untharan Brotherhood, a monastic order in which adherents practice draconian discipline, ritual bloodletting, and the art of war. While they spend much of their efforts aiding the rest of the Brotherhood in fending off the quickslavers, members of this order have occasionally clashed with the forces running the Imperial blockade of the islands of Unthara, wielding weapons of terrifying power. Among these weapons are the Twin Furies, a matched pair of kamas that focus the hatred of Khayne into a fierce presence upon the battlefield.

The Treasure of NeoExodus: Twin Furies is created for use with your NeoExodus: A House Divided campaign setting home gaming for the Pathfinder RPG. The Treasures of NeoExodus series focus on creating unique and interesting magical and mundane items that you can use in your NeoExodus home games that give you more a personal connection to the item.

If you are a fan of horror and you love Pathfinder and you want to play the ONLY 5-star + seal of approval from Endzeitgeist.com, then you must get Obsidian Apocalypse. Here is information on this product:

A dark star fell from the sky bringing with it the end of all things! The sanctity of the world known as Abaddon was shattered when a global apocalyptic event of a meteor impacting the planet causing a destructive ecological and eldritch change. Now there is no day or night, just never ending Apocalypse. An undead world ruled by fear and horror. Undead nightmares prowl the darkest forest with malevolent ghouls, grim demonic fiends and horrific vampires prey on a fearful populace.

Evil dominates the world to be challenged by noble heroes fighting to take back a world that should belong to them. Are you willing to take up the fight?

Inside this book you will find you’ll need to embark on adventures in the exciting setting of Obsidian Apocalypse:

Four toolkit setting templates: Infernus Risen – Angels and Demons have been brought to this world and engage in battles all over this world; World of the Elder Gods - The meteor is actually a prison from unusual monsters that breaks open and escapes to this world; Pandemic Contagion - A super powerful virus begins infecting, mutating and killing people of this world; and World of the Undead - Undead raise due to the necromantic energy in the meteor.

A dark star fell from the sky bringing with it the end of all things! The sanctity of the world known as Abaddon was shattered when a global apocalyptic event of a meteor impacting the planet causing a destructive ecological and eldritch change. Now there is no day or night, just never ending Apocalypse. Races of Obsidian Apocalypse: Flesh and Iron adds four new races to the Obsidian Apocalypse campaign setting making the world even more interesting and just as dangerous. Are you willing to take up the fight?

Inside this book you will find you will find four new races for Races of Obsidian Apocalypse: Flesh and Iron:

Promethean (Flesh and Clockwork): Prometheans suffer lingering mental effects from their creation rites. The flesh prometheans have a personality made from an amalgam of souls, cobbled together from various creatures. Clockwork prometheans have the luxury of a solitary mind, but the creation rites cause them as much torment as they do to their flesh-bound cousins.

Raijin: When an outraged spirit of one slain by the undead lords of Abaddon possesses a survivor filled with desires for revenge, the two form a powerful and terrifying force, a raijin. A synergy of life and death, it can reach into the netherworld and manifest some powers of the dead in the physical world.

Uzamati: The only uzamati trait that stands out in their normal form is the purple irises of their eyes. But, when an uzamati phases out, all semblance of normalcy disappears. They melt into pure negative energy, becoming twisted in the process: Their skin turns a deep purple and exudes a strong glow. Their bodies become slightly transparent and gaunt as a skeleton.

And don’t forget, the 2nd Bestiary of Armageddon Contest is going on right now. If you have ever wanted to be a game designer for Pathfinder Role Playing game or third party publishers, then you should enter.

I was talking to Rich Redman and I made him two offers of things I would be interested to write for Obsidian Apocalypse and he picked #1 over #2. While I am not going to tell you “exactly” what we are doing, but here is where we are getting a lot of inspiration from:

The city of Manifest rests atop ruins from ancient times and far above the entrance to the land of the dead. Here, the world of the living is shared equally with the deceased, who linger in physical form before finally passing through the Veil. Whether currently living or dead, residents and visitors are assured of an eternity of action and intrigue.

And for all the work we did on Obsidian Apocalypse from all the great names like JP Chapleau, Kalyna Conrad, Eric Hindley, Jeff Lee, Owen K.C. Stephens, Richard Pett, Rich Redman, Louis Porter Jr., James Desborough, Robert “Bob” E. Drouin, Wojciech “Drejk” Gruchala, Nick Herold, Sam Hing, Michael McCarthy, Jonathan Palmer and Richard Pett. I think this review is the most satisfying with this paragraph:

I was honestly skeptical when I backed the Kickstarter back in the day – and am thoroughly glad I did. I’m not kidding when I say that this is a whole new beast that rectifies just about all of the issues of its predecessor and adds vast amounts of awesomeness on top. My final verdict will clock in at 5 stars + seal of approval – and, since I didn’t manage to get the review done in time in 2013, this one now is a candidate for my Top Ten of 2014. If you’ll excuse me, I have an endtimes-scenario to plan…

Louis Porter Jr. Design, has released Races of Obsidian Apocalypse: Flesh and Iron for The Pathfinder Roleplaying Game at RPGNow.com and DriveThruRPG.com. Here is information on this product:

A dark star fell from the sky bringing with it the end of all things! The sanctity of the world known as Abaddon was shattered when a global apocalyptic event of a meteor impacting the planet causing a destructive ecological and eldritch change. Now there is no day or night, just never ending Apocalypse. Races of Obsidian Apocalypse: Flesh and Iron adds four new races to the Obsidian Apocalypse campaign setting making the world even more interesting and just as dangerous. Are you willing to take up the fight?

Inside this book you will find you will find four new races for Races of Obsidian Apocalypse: Flesh and Iron:

• Promethean (Flesh and Clockwork): Prometheans suffer lingering mental effects from their creation rites. The flesh prometheans have a personality made from an amalgam of souls, cobbled together from various creatures. Clockwork prometheans have the luxury of a solitary mind, but the creation rites cause them as much torment as they do to their flesh-bound cousins.

• Raijin: When an outraged spirit of one slain by the undead lords of Abaddon possesses a survivor filled with desires for revenge, the two form a powerful and terrifying force, a raijin. A synergy of life and death, it can reach into the netherworld and manifest some powers of the dead in the physical world.

• Uzamati: The only uzamati trait that stands out in their normal form is the purple irises of their eyes. But, when an uzamati phases out, all semblance of normalcy disappears. They melt into pure negative energy, becoming twisted in the process: Their skin turns a deep purple and exudes a strong glow. Their bodies become slightly transparent and gaunt as a skeleton.

So I have decided that I am going to make this newest adventure path for our Obsidian Apocalypse campaign called The Cross of Fire, a completely transparent event. I will be describing the process of what I do, how I do it, why we do it and other stuff that goes on while doing this adventure path. Giving all the Pathfinder fans a real peak behind the screen of what we have planned for this. First off the bat, I have decided to have the amazing writer Christina Stiles take over as the lead writer of the project. I offered Christina two projects to choose from and I think she picked this one because I think it was because of the Drow and what we have planned for them.

For those who don’t know, The Cross of Fire is an adventure path I thought up and created nearly two decades ago when I was planning to submit it to Dungeon Magazine. The Cross of Fire was originally planned to be placed in Ravenloft in the area of Bluetspur. The basic of the adventure is the legend of the ultimate undead killing weapon called the Cross of Fire. The cross was supposedly lost/hidden in monastery in a city that was controlled by a colony of Githyanki; which was built on top of a VERY large sewer / underground system that was under the control of the Drow colony; in an area of Bluetspur which was under the control of the Mind Flayers. Your adventuring group decided to take on this challenge and recover this ultimate undead killing weapon, because in Ravenloft you can understand why so many people would find this weapon useful.

And that was the pitch that I told anyone and everyone and I told them one day I would create that adventure. Fast forward 20 years and here we are with this expanding to create the now The Cross of Fire Saga Adventure Path now set in Obsidian Apocalypse. Better still we’ve replaced some of the originally planned monsters due to IP issues (Thanks WOTC); so we have replaced the Mind Player with the Phrenic Scourge and we are working on creating on creating a whole new monster as the replacement for the Githyanki. This new monster is being inspired between American Indian and Japanese influences plus I am giving them a VERY distinct weapon with a COOL racial ability / effect, so it is going to be interesting.

Here is the quick outline we have created and plan to get a more detailed version up here as soon as possible with more items fleshed out:

Cross of Fire AP Part 1 – XXXXXXX (No name for the adventure itself be we are working on it.)

And that is the general overview of what Cross of Fire Adventure Path is going to be but I am SURE there will be a lot of twist and turns from what the final released product becomes. One of the cooler reasons that we are doing this with transparency is we want to hear direct feedback from the fans of Pathfinder and let us know what we are doing right and wrong.

Here is a crazy adventure idea for Obsidian Apocalypse that I have been kicking around: Two girls with their armies battle it out for the control of a city. One is named Alice fell down a rabbit hole to get here; The other is named Dorothy who came via a tornado. And the PCs are in the middle trying to protect the city. Welcome to the Emerald Looking Glass Wars. What do you think?

Wish you could get a coupon book that link several LPJ Design products at a reduced price and showed you the Top Eigth 3PP products like Legendary Games, Rogue Genius Games, Dreamscarred Press and Kobold Press for Pathfinder RPG by Paizo for the month of February? Now you can. Enjoy Paizo Fans!

So it looks like I am going to be assigning a new toolkit setting template to someone to write up. I mean I don’t think anyone has done conspiracy theory fantasy horror yet. The first person on the list for people to call is Wolfgang Baur (Hello remember Dark Matter) maybe even Robin Laws? What do you think? Does conspiracy theory fantasy horror get you interested? Let me know here. Talk to you later…
